Umm.. by title (linked), editor, date, and a "work in progress"
note, I suppose.

There are no hard constraints.

Let's see if there's any guidance in the manual of style...
  http://www.w3.org/2001/06/manual/#References

yes...

"# An entry in a references section takes this form:

    * Title, inside a (if available), inside cite
    * Comma-delimited list of authors' names
    * If there are no authors, use editors instead if available.
Following the last family name, say "eds." or "Editors."
    * Publisher, followed by the date of publication in the form DD
Month YYYY
    * A sentence containing a text-only URI.
    * When available, a sentence ending in the latest version URI
"

I think it's OK to just cite the evolving document, noting
the issues list last-revised date as of when the WD was
last revised.
